Joint Oireachtas Committee on European Union Affairs

Impact of Brexit on Ireland: Discussion

Mr. Eugene Drennan:

Not at all. It is open for them to come here and compete for that business if they want it. I bring the relevance of this to any meeting I go to. We must remember that no meat factory in Ireland ever refuses a farmer's cattle on kill day. This must be moved on the same day. Efficiencies have to be introduced. The French will not be sitting here waiting for the kill or deciding when an Irish farmer will bring the cattle to market. We must be here and we must go with it.
